 Seiko at its best.Sep 15, 2005
By Marcel T. Hoffman
This Seiko kinetic watch is a real jewel. It came from World of Watches and arrived within days in mint condition with full warranty papers. The price I paid for it was outstanding. The week after I purchased this watch, I walked into a Kay jewler's and they immediately recognized it and were impressed by the way it sparkled. I later realized that they were selling it for the list price of $675! The sapphire cyrstal really makes it shine as well as resists scratches. The ingenious kinetic mechanism, converting your arm movements into stored electrical energy, allows one to never need to replace a battery. The stop watch function is ultra precise and can be reset like a regular stopwatch. Last of all, the stainless steel band is of ultra high quality, fitting of Seiko's high end watches.

Great Quality, Awesome Watch!!Dec 13, 2005
By Jay
This is actually my first kentic watch. I wanted to get something that looked very stylish, durable and precise. This watch has it ALL! I looked around for the same kind of watch and as a result ended getting this fine jem. The minute I took it out of the box I knew this was a very high quality product. It came with the usual instructions and warranty pappers. At first it feels a bit heavy, just a little. But thats what you get for a finely built product. Once wearing it for a while the feeling of heaviness goes away quickly. I want to say that the look of this watch is spectacular! The sapphire cyrstal, the stainless steel band, the stopwatch, and the awesome kentic functionality makes this watch a MUST BUY!!! A lot of my friends ask me what kind of watch I have and they are always interested in where they can get it. One word...Impeccable....this is a watch you will NOT regret in getting.

best watch i've ever ownedOct 14, 2005
By moses77
I have been wearing seiko's kinetic watches exclusively for about 10 years now. This one is my third. It's the best one so far. Kinetic is awesome...my first one which is now close to 11 years old still works perfectly.
BUY THIS WATCH, you will not regret it

 seiko arctura kinetic chronographAug 18, 2006
By Ahmet Murat Hondur
I have owned this watch for about a month. It is quite nice. But, it is a bit heavy. The titanium band may be more light, but is more expensive.
What is most dissapointing about it is that the stainless steel band gets easily scratched. And, the design of the hour and minute hands could have been more fashionable.
Nonetheless, it is quite nice watch for 250$.
Ten Years and Ticking.....Nov 26, 2011
By Fadi A
I have had this watch for around 10 years now and is still ticking to the nearest second. If it wasn't for day time saving, I would never have had to adjust the dial!!!! Yes...it is that accurate...
The primary reason I bought this watch, which was one of the few kinetics back then, was because I've wanted a watch that would keep accurate Quartz quality time while keeping it its back casket factory-sealed. Unfortunately for battery operated watches, and regardless where you go to replace a watch's battery, you will always risk water infiltration as the watch will never be the same as its original gas-tight condition.
The watch is super accurate and extremely water tight. I've gone swiming wearing it over and over again, dived 15 meters in the sea, and even showered wearing it on a daily basis. The secret as I said is you never ever need to open it to change a dead battery, while at the same time maintaining the Quartz accuracy that you get with Quartz battery operated watches.
Sometimes I store it for 4 to 6 months and wear it again only to notice that this jewel has kept an accurate time up to the second.
The only drawback is that it is somewhat heavy, but this is a small price to pay for the accuracy and convince of having it while in the shower or swimming.
If you really want a keeper, go ahead and do yourself a favor and buy this master piece. I guarantee you will never regret it
